"On the issue of the WebOS one, it is so far out that it will be DOA by the time it is released." Perhaps. The Honeycomb tablets will have a 3-4 month head start on the Touchpad, but all of the Honeycomb ones still have cellular connectivity which probably puts them in the $700 range off contract. That price will limit their appeal and pretty much squanders their time-to-market advantage over the Touchpad. The first tablet, Honeycomb or otherwise, to be priced competitively with the low end iPad ($500-600) will be the first real contender. Now probably the white label box makers out of Asia are best equipped to do that with Gingerbread, which is actually bad news for the Motorolas, LGs and Samsungs of the world, who are refusing to play for that market for now, to their detriment.
